Wendy Houstoun
More stand up than dance around, WATCH IT! asks questions about identity, personal truth and political ideology in a ridiculous Game Show for One.
Wendy Houstoun has been performing since 1980, and began her career as a dancer with DV8 Physical Theatre, Nigel Charnock and Forced Entertainment. In quite possibly her last ever show Wendy Houstoun teams up with Kate Champion (Australia) and Hannes Langolf (UK, Germany) to create a personal and irreverent solo.
What happens to the individual in the midst of ideological regulation?
Is it possible to ask questions without being cast as a reactionary? Is self-censorship driving thought underground? Secrecy, privacy and the public domain are all on the table in a show that combines projection, spoken word and idiosyncratic movement.
“A brilliant renaissance woman of performance art.” The New York Times
